How to be better at Basketball
Defense
In the book James Wilson states that different people have different theories on defense so giving advice is limited.
" Your feet must be spread out wider than shoulder length ... will provide a firm base"
"Back should be straight as possible "
" Knees should be bent slightly inwards and in half squat position "
" Torso should be leaning forward and arms wide "
The photo below shows me applying these steps to my defensive stance

🏀Defensive Stance 🏀
The few tips he includes on defense is starting out in the defensive stance ." Your feet must be spread out wider than shoulder length ... will provide a firm base"
"Back should be straight as possible "
" Knees should be bent slightly inwards and in half squat position "
" Torso should be leaning forward and arms wide "

🏀Boxing Out 🏀
In the book , James Wilson goes over Boxing out. He states that when someone shoots the ball you should not run and go get the ball but to Box Out . You do this by , " pivot around and jam your butt into their leg. This will stop them from getting the ball" (James Wilson 38)
As you can see here I am boxing out JD after Naya had shot the ball(not in the picture). Placing my back on her and having my arms wide so she can not get to the ball .
Questions;
Do you have any tips for my defense ?
What position do you play for your team or sport ?
